i got covid 💯💯💯 💪💪💪😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

Yup. 2020 first wave. Got sick  in hospital.  Three days in was moved to ICU. Two more days and I was in a coma on a ventilator. Lost 3 months and my leg below the knee. Was in hospital 6 months total. Recovery still in progress after 3 years. It's a real illness. I don't think it's as much of a problem as the governments tried to convince us of. I think the arbitrary way every freedom in the civilised world was taken away and not one population rose up against the tyrannical orders and overthrew the dictators who imprisoned us in our own homes with no evidence our movements were responsible for the spread of the virus is far more dangerous than the virus that flooded my lungs and stopped my heart. Literally. I needed extended CPR - 4 hours of it - to resuscitate me after I went into full cardiac and respiratory arrest as a result of my body's reaction to Covid. It's called a cytokine storm. The body's immune system ends up attacking itself to try to eradicate the virus. Trust me. The way we handed our freedom to the bastards in power is infinitely more terrifying than the thought of having COVID again. Considering it almost killed me last time, maybe that says something?

I've had it a few times... perhaps every year, but every single time except the first time, they were just a couple of days, and more of a regular cold

first time was around four or five days

I've heard from a lot of people here, and also around the world that this COVID in particular can be really annoying for around a full week or so... so, make you pill up and drink lots of liquid too

I was probably carrying it for awhile without symptoms. My family had it then they got cured then I got it from them. For 2-3 weeks I could barely drink or eat anything. Food tasted muted with understones of germ-x and I only drink water or juice and that tasted like pure bug spray. (I’d cry and whine through out that time in fear I couldn’t enjoy anything ever again. I was severely dehydrated.) Luckily I never got really sick.

I had in the second year when the homeschooling came to an end, and Drama Queen started to bring viruses home again :D

I was sick for two standard weeks with some headaches following the next few months. I got covid twice this year, during spring and autumn, but it was mild and had no aftereffects.

Lliam · Answer

I never masked or got jabbed. Since 2020, I've been to lots of things like dinners, parties, events and even large gatherings of 100s of other unmasked, un-jabbed people and never gotten sick.
I don't know how anyone knows if they got covid since the tests can't detect it. Since 2000, everyone who gets sick thinks it's covid. Colds and flu miraculously disappeared.

I had an upper respiratory thing in Nov 2019 with symptoms that sound like SARS-Cov-2, but it tapered off after a few days and disappeared in two weeks. I just treated it like any other illness and let it pass. Nobody had heard of covid yet.

molonski2 · Answer

I told you you had it ! See?

I've had it 3 times , but 2 and 3 were NOTHING.

Number 1 , I'm rapt I had coz it pumped my immune to an awesome level , I've really never been sick since 3 years , real bad 14 days ( mostly in bed or lying on Sofa ) and 7 days kinda just super lazy , now that I'm though that , just so happy that I had it.

Prior to vax ( which I dont think mattered by the way ) but on every measure never been healthier.

jcampbell115 · Answer

Yes I had it once, bad chills the first night to the point I felt cold even in a hot shower, then I lost my sense of smell completely and my taste for about 5 to 7 days, then I was fine. I couldn't even smell a scented candle lit right under my nose lmao

Al_Musafir · Answer

Had it twice.

The first time, it didn't show any symptoms but I got myself checked nevertheless just to find out that I was positive. Recovered within a week.

The second time, I had mild cough and cold with some back ache. Took me two weeks to recover.

Is it a new strain that has got you? How do you feel?

love_conquers_lust · Answer

Once. I had a really bad fever for a couple days and then a dry cough for 6 weeks. It actually wasn’t bad for me.

What I don’t like is they said I had to get vaccinated when I was already immune to a strain. I would have rather opted for a test to detect immunity.

I don’t like getting pumped with vaccines if I don’t have to. I already wore masks when I worked outdoors. I picked up that trick working landscaping.

I also already socially distance. I only allow those I trust to be close to me. Strangers can maintain a 6ft rule.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

My friend's entire family had it when it first got here and they only had it for about a week. All they took to get rid of it was Robitussin CF and Tylenol.
Another friend of mine got it last week and he was already getting over it about 3 days later.

rigmarole · Answer

Nope. I never caught COVID, the common cold, or influenza since the pandemic started. I never took the experimental COVID vaccines, I never wore a mask for COVID, Florida didn’t lock down and I’ve been outside everyday living a normal life. The only thing I do is not touch my face when out in public and I wash my hands properly. Aside from that I get sunshine and exercise everyday.

WhiteSteve · Answer

Had it twice. I was lucky and it didn’t affect me much. Lasted maybe 5-7 days, I more just felt like I could feel an irritated spot in my lungs where it would have hit me worse if I wasn’t vaccinated. Getting the vaccine AND a flu shot at the same time had me feeling way worse, I don’t recommend doubling up unless you have nowhere to be for like 36 hours. But it overall wasn’t bad, and having an excuse to keep to myself for 5 days was nothing short of amazing.

BoopBoopBeep · Answer

about a week. Felt like I lost kickboxing while hungover and fell down a flight of staires. then my body forgot it has to breathe so I went to the ER. 2 hours in the hospital getting monoclonal antibodies then I walked out and I was fine.

Anonymous · Answer

Never but I was paranoia personified at the peak

N95 mask, fume hood and gloves to go out, in fact if a hazmat suit had been available I'd probably have bought one

I froze every letter for a day before opening it and outside packaging was burned just to be safe

7Phoenix7 · Answer

I got it once, and it lasted a good week and a half. Hope you feel better soon

sawno · Answer

rosemilk · Answer

i had it back in April. for like a week? and then the last effects of it for over a month. that was my first time getting covid. it took me like 3 years to even get it

Levin · Answer

I don't believe so. Perhaps I had the omicron which was like a long headache/cold. So I had a cold or covid, whichever.

wiltingrosepetal · Answer

Once during exam season in 2022, so around October. Lasted two weeks. The second was exam season in 2023. My body actively despises me 😊

Still-alive · Answer

I had it for a week, the taste/smell loss was gone for about two. i had one very intense day of fever symptoms and stayed in bed all day.

Over all it wasn't a pleasant experience. hope i never get it again.

lightbulb27 · Answer

i got it again. first time 1-2 mon, now it's like a week.

worldscolide · Answer

Caught covid twice... Each time, 3 days and i was done. It sucks when its more severe for other people.. im glad it was never severe for me.

LaFemmeFatale_1 · Answer

I have had Covid twice, lasted up to 5 days each time. Probably would be more difficult had I not been vaccinated.  My parents and brother have had it 3 times.

LiamJHayden · Answer

I had it before the vaccines. Was bad for about four days. Sense of smell returned in nine days.

No, but I have known many that have, and of course all of them are or were anti-vaxxers.
